About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Air Education and Training Command is conducting market research to identify potential sources for a MiG-17 Warbird aircraft demonstration at the Keesler AFB Thunder Over the Sound-Air & Space Show scheduled for October 30 - November 2, 2025. The contractor will be required to provide a two-ship MiG-17 aerial demonstration including one night performance, one two-aircraft rehearsal/Family Day performance, and two two-aircraft performances on Saturday and Sunday, all in accordance with AFMAN 10-1004 guidelines. Interested parties must submit their company name, address, phone number, point of contact, CAGE code, company size status, and ownership structure (U.S. or foreign-owned). This is a sources sought announcement only and not a solicitation, with responses due by July 11, 2025. The government emphasizes that this notice does not constitute a promise to issue a future solicitation and specifically requests that companies not submit proposals at this time.
This opportunity does not include any set-aside designations and is open to all qualifying contractors. No incumbent contractors or current service providers are mentioned in the documentation. While no specific award values or budget ranges are disclosed, the government will provide comprehensive support including lodging in double-occupancy rooms, meals, ground transportation, fuel (100LL/Jet-A/JP8), engine oil, and limited hangar space. The contractor will receive a single lump sum payment within 30 days of invoice submission, with full payment guaranteed if ready to perform but unable to do so due to uncontrollable circumstances. Additional requirements include mandatory pre-show briefings, static aircraft display capabilities, potential merchandise sales related to the performance, and compliance with base security protocols including background checks and base access procedures for all contractor personnel.
